The empress's change, the first man to reach Amazon Lily!

At this very moment.

Facing Feng Lei, Hancock no longer felt superior.

The opponent displayed strength that clearly gave them the ability to defeat her.

"What a monster!"

Hancock muttered to herself.

Then.

She leaped onto the warship and used her Love-Love Fruit powers to restore the petrified marines to their original state.

The petrification was lifted, and the entire navy returned to life.

When they saw Hancock before them, and the frozen sea around them, everyone was stunned.

"What happened? Why is the sea frozen?"

"Could it be that Admiral Aokiji came along too?"

"So the Empress came aboard the warship because she agreed to the summons?"

"How can there be such a beautiful woman in the world!"

"It seems she and Feng Lei are somewhat familiar with each other!"

Koby and Helmeppo looked at each other in bewilderment.

Their keen observation.

It looks like we just went through a battle.

The damaged decks, the railings, and the frozen sea.

But they had no memory of it at all.

Seeing that Hancock had lifted everyone's petrification, Feng Lei finally spoke, saying, "This freeze will last for a few more days. Let's set off after it thaws!"

The first use of "Ice Release" indeed achieved the same effect as Aokiji's Ice-Ice Fruit ability.

After all, it's a ninjutsu that controls the elements, and its potential is limitless as one continues to develop it.

At the moment.

The sea is frozen and will take three to five days to thaw.

Even if he uses "Dust Release" to shatter the ice, the warships still cannot move.

"No rush. I need to return to Amazon Lily Island to take care of some matters!"

Hancock slowly shook her head, her tone calm.

She was leading the Kuja Pirates back from an expedition.

They happened to run into Feng Lei and his group, who were heading to Amazon Lily.

Therefore, someone was ordered to stop it.

Result.

Even though she took action herself, she was still defeated by Feng Lei.

I never expected the Marine Headquarters to send out such a monster.

"In that case, go ahead!"

Feng Lei nodded slightly.

Now that the other party had agreed to the summons, he was no longer in a hurry.

It's just a matter of going back a few days later.

However.

Hearing Feng Lei's words, Hancock did not make a move to leave.

"What? Do you expect me to entertain Her Majesty the Empress?"

Feng Lei raised an eyebrow.

Upon hearing this,

Koby and the others all showed expressions of anticipation.

They were captivated by Hancock's charm and wished they could see her every moment.

Faced with Feng Lei's teasing, Hancock bit her red lips and replied with some embarrassment and indignation, "My skin isn't that thick, but the sea is frozen by you, and the pirate ship can't sail. How am I supposed to get back to Amazon Lily?"

Was the ocean frozen by Feng Lei?

As the Empress finished speaking...

The entire warship was thrown into a tremendous shock.

Boka, Koby, Helmeppo, and others who knew Feng Lei all looked at Feng Lei with incredulous eyes.

They remember.

The ability to freeze the ocean—only Marine Admiral Aokiji could do that, right?

How could Feng Lei possibly do that?

But judging from Hancock's tone, she didn't seem to be lying.

Instantly.

The group felt a chill run down their spines upon closer examination.

Could it be that Feng Lei possesses the same abilities as Admiral Aokiji?

How could that be?

Devil Fruits are all unique.

Under the shocked gazes of everyone, Feng Lei calmly replied, "Then let's wait until the ice melts before we go!"

"No!"

Hancock immediately retorted.

Only.

When she came to her senses, she realized she had been somewhat out of line.

She didn't know why either.

Seeing Feng Lei's impolite and unyielding attitude, she felt a sense of rebellion.

"My business is urgent, I must return immediately!"

A moment later, under Feng Lei's suspicious gaze, Hancock immediately came up with a reason.

Right.

The matter is quite urgent.

"But you said the boat can't sail." Feng Lei frowned, finding the woman before him utterly unreasonable.

If the other party hadn't agreed to the summons, he really wouldn't have wanted to bother with it at all.

Hancock quickly replied, "Don't you have the ability to freeze the sea? Why don't you open an ice path for me so I can walk back!"

Upon hearing this...

Feng Lei hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay!"

In order to prevent the woman from having another crazy episode, Feng Lei had no choice but to agree.

Furthermore...

It will take time for the ice trapping the ships to melt, so it's good for passing the time.

Feng Lei agreed.

Hancock's expression froze.

She hadn't expected Feng Lei to agree so readily.

She had prepared several excuses in her mind, but none of them came in handy.

I just don't know why.

I suddenly felt a little happy.

"You wait here."

Feng Lei gave Boka and the others some instructions, then said to Hancock, "Let's go!"

"Um!"

Hancock nodded slightly and returned to the pirate ship with Feng Lei.

"Sandersonia, Marigold, come with me back to Amazon Lily!"

"Okay, sister!"

The two women responded.

It was only then that I realized what had happened.

"Sister, our boat is frozen in ice, how do we get back?"

Not only their pirate ships, but also their warships were sealed by massive ice sheets; the entire sea area was almost completely frozen.

He can clear the way!

Hancock pointed at Feng Lei.

At this time.

The two women then noticed that Feng Lei was standing next to Hancock.

Upon hearing Hancock's words, the two women were taken aback.

What's the meaning?

Is my sister going to take this navy guy to Amazon Lily?

But this navy officer is a man!

Didn't you personally set the rule that men are prohibited from entering Amazon Lily?

Why did you bring a man along on your own initiative?!

Seeing the suspicious looks on her two younger sisters, Hancock felt a pang of guilt, like someone caught red-handed stealing.

"The country has important matters to attend to, and we can't afford to delay. This time is an exception!"

Important transaction processing?

How could we not know?

The two sisters were surprised.

Since Hancock had already spoken, they couldn't understand it, but they couldn't say anything more. They could only nod and follow Hancock off the ship, landing on the thick ice.

Using Feng Lei's "Ice Release" technique, they carved out an ice path on the Calm Belt sea and quickly arrived at a port on Amazon Lily Island.

Looking over there.

The entire port was filled with women of all heights, shapes, and appearances!

They seemed to have known about Hancock's return for some time, and were therefore waiting there.

But what they saw before them took them by surprise.

Instead of the Kuja Pirates' ship, the three Hancock sisters walked on the sea, with a wide ice path beneath their feet.

As they watched in astonishment, the line of sight stretched all the way to the port.

"This is?"

Amidst the women's confusion, a look of shock appeared in the eyes of an old woman with a long face and short stature, who was leaning on a cane.

It seems that only one person possesses this ability.

Could it be...?

The summons for the next Shichibukai has surprisingly been sent by Marine Admiral Aokiji?

But.

Her pupils contracted when her gaze fell on the people around Hancock.

It wasn't Marine Admiral Aokiji, but someone else.

It was actually a man?

When will Hancock allow a man to walk alongside her!?

And you even brought him to Amazon Lily!

In an instant.

My Granny Nyon seems to be having an existential crisis!
